I think the only way this could be pulled off is if the battles were actually more like the anime battles. The scenarios that are shown are what I think makes it much less irritating to hear them say their names in the anime(good ex: in Ash's battle with Bertha, her Hippowdon's speech timing was pretty good when it nailed Torterra with that Fire Fang, it was also pretty funny seeing his Torterra go 'errrr' as it was slammed into the ground). The way the games are, and being turn based, it would just be too repetitive.
